-Use rocks as a distraction and then knife kill to thin the herd if guys are at an encampment
-Use height to your advantage. If they have to shoot up at you....it's also cover and it takes them a while to get to you.
-Get the silencer for the sniper rifle.
-Hide and then fight rather than fight-fight-fight. It's relatively easy to lose them in the jungle.

-You can use the patrol boats to take out pirate encampments on the water. ...who cares how many replacements come in(because you didn't sneak)?....more dead meat for you!

I'm only going with the knife/AK47 and sniper rifle....so it's not a big deal for me as far as weapons...but taking the towers gets you free weapons.
I also only take ammo from my kills...so money isn't something I need...but crafting the larger wallet is key as well as crafting the ammo pouches(those I do use)

Don't be fooled by those peacock looking birds...they are deadly!

I'm sure there are tons more...but I can't think of any right now.

Silence as many weapons as you can, shoot before they see you. If one bullet is good 15 are better.

Re: Far Cry 3

Just bought the game and I'm loving it but a damn crocodile scared me to death in the first mission.

Is that the one where you collect flowers and pig skins? Same thing happened to me. Wandered into the water and promptly got death rolled by a croc.

The first couple of hours I was getting worked by everything in the game, but now I'm going all Arrow on folks, demolishing a room full of guys with machine guns, with just the recurve bow.

Do this today: Instead of $%*#!@& on a game you're not going to play or movie you're not going to watch, say something good about a piece of media you're excited about.

Do the same thing tomorrow. And the next. Now do it forever.

Re: Far Cry 3

My advice would be to unlock all the radio first, hunting/crafting as you go. It unlocks the guns, if you can I'd seek out relics and letters of the lost too, signature weapons tend to be the strongest of the class of weapons, getting them on the first island almost guarantees your annihilating a majority of your opponents. Using the bow early in the game also cuts down on costs and is fairly common to kill with one shot. As others have said, nearing encampments should always be done crouching. If you can't find a plan of action or simply cannot set up a silent take over, make sure to take care of alarms and you don't have to worry about stealth, but lose out on a good chunk of experience.
